Hypocrisy it is. The worst of it is that almost every American I talk to 
about it agrees that it's silly, yet the condition persists.
Everyone is infatuated with sex and doesn't want anyone else to know it

Of course no one ever accused Americans, or most humans for that matter, 
of being over logical.
